Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Yeah, you can spend the points if you got them.
1) Yep.
2) Maybe, if anyone has the skills for it. I am guessing...Electronics Repair (Sensors)?
3) Yeah, the monkeys are minor electronic parts and small batteries worth $5 each.
4) The car is a four door station wagon. It has a nonfunctional engine (needs minor repairs) and has no fuel (gasoline).Anachronism will never high-light the folly of my convictions!

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Done. For the next 36 hours, Simone will repair all nine monkeys to work again. Guess you're all camping down for the night inside the base?

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Yeah, but Tariq could continue scrounging for the rest of the day. I think we are not looking for anything in particular at the moment (we are looking for radar / comms equipment, but this can wait).

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Do you guys want to hold up somewhere and rest? Let the injured heal for a bit?

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
That would take upwards of a week, right? I see no problem with searching at least the building we are in. Not opening any suspicious-looking doors or anything. I'd have our camp on some upper floor with the first repaired monkey sensor occupying downstairs. Then we can skip a few days and see how it goes.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Can Tariq reasonably safely circle the building outside and have a look inside to count the ground-level rooms and estimate the corridor(s)? After that, I'll let him handle it as he sees fit.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Does it mean that the windows are all shuttered so one cannot just look inside and count?

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Sorry, I've been a bit occupied.
Tariq is trading in his One-Task Wonder (Architecture) perk and spending an extra point to buy Architecture at IQ, as discussed, as well as putting a point in Search.
I will do some more searching around, I'll post IC shortly and do the Architecture roll and more Searching/Scrounging.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
We have five days worth of canned food, so let's just relax and take a vacation for exactly that long. Is anyone a trained Physician or willing to train on the two volunteers?
UPD: Scratch that, wrong kind of counting. We need 12 per day. Still can rest for five days, but then the first thing we do is hunting.Last edited by u-b; 2020-12-09 at 01:45 PM.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Tariq isn't going to sit around for five days waiting for you guys to heal, he intends to keep exploring the complex. I still have 6 rations plus what I found, so we're good for a bit. I have First Aid-14, but no Physician skill.
I rolled, we ended up with 5 bottles of booze and 17 opioid pills.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
It's three meals per day per person, plus water (which is not a problem, because of the snow).
Eat a ration for dinner, everyone, before we start on the rest period.Last edited by Shoot Da Moon; 2020-12-09 at 06:08 PM.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
I rolled these before, in response to your #204 post IC.
Speaking of rest period, has one started when we were dragged into the base late morning today or must it be nght-to-night? It seems Tariq is sabotaging the fast-forward, which I am fine with. I don't remember, have we ate the lunch?
@Everyone: Take 5 canned food each.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
How many days does the party rest for? And what does Tariq do while the rest are recovering?

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Can I try to rig up a small explosive charge to blow the last lock? I figure a shotgun shell and/or one of the jam-tin grenades might do it.
Tariq is frustrated, and just wants this over with. May as well make use of my Gadgeteer (Explosives)!

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Once he gets into the last locker, Tariq is going to rejoin the others. I'm okay doing the fast-forward now, he'll use the time to nurse the minor wounds he got opening the lockers and sort through his finds.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Okay, unless anyone takes anything, I'll just account for the loot:
13 heroin pills
Broken Colt Government .45 pistol
Broken Colt .45 Single Action Army revolver
Jam tin grenade
H&R Model 8 Standard 12G single shotgun
4 MREs
6 pistol bullets
2 shotgun shells
(plus whatever is in the last locker)
I suggest we keep the MREs (they are good trade value).
Does anybody have the skill to repair the handguns once we get to the workshop?
I'll roll and eat three days of rest assuming nothing comes at us in the meantime. Tariq will only heal on days 2 and 3 (he's been busy today). Then we'll see how it goes and assign our priorities.
@DM any chance picking up Physician while we are at it? Sean would be willing to "try applying some long-forgotten lessons and see if he remembers anything" on day 3+ (i.e. roll it at default a few times to gain some practice; he does have First Aid, so it is somewhat plausible that his education was a bit broader, if not deep enough and without much practice). Also, does using Physician on oneself and/or one extra person counts as serious activity for the purpose of natural healing?Last edited by u-b; 2020-12-19 at 01:34 PM.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Trying to learn a new skill and apply it does count as serious activity, yes.
